print("hello world!")
Need to share a code snippet? Eggspress integrates highlight.js, a library that applies syntax highlighting to your code blocks.
Code blocks are highlighted in different themes depending on whether dark mode is toggled.
In light mode, Eggspress uses stackoverflow-light. In dark mode, github-dark.
How to create a code block
You can create code blocks in your Markdown content. To do so, wrap any number of lines of code in between a set of three backticks (the "`" character).
To apply syntax highlighting, you must specify the language used inside of the code block. This can be done by appending the name of the language immediately following the first set of backticks.
Here are some examples of how you might write code blocks in your content.
```python
def greet(name):
print(f"Hello, {name}!")
person = "World"
greet(person)
```
```java
public class Greeting {
public static void greet(String name) {
System.out.println("Hello, " + name + "!");
}
public static void main(String[] args) {
String person = "World";
greet(person);
}
}
```
You may also use an alias to specify your language. In the example below, we specify our language as "js" instead of "javascript."
```js
function greet(name) {
console.log("Hello, " + name + "!");
}
let person = "World";
greet(person);
```
Which languages are supported?
Eggspress supports all 192 languages available through highlight.js. For a complete list of languages, see Supported Languages.
